A Letter to my Sons on Mother’s Day

You may not know this but I didn’t become a mother on the day you were born. I became a mother the moment I found out that I was pregnant with you. From that very moment, I loved you. I didn’t even need time to fall in love with you because the love filled my heart and soul in a flash. I remember being so anxious to meet you, to see your faces and your fingers, hands, feet and toes. I felt like I knew you even before we met face-to-face and you knew me too. The years flew by; I couldn’t remember how I spent all of my time before you came into my life because I couldn’t imagine spending my time any other way, ever. I have loved every aspect of being your mother, the good, the bad and the ugly times. Never once did I wish for anything else. Never once did I want to be anything else. My entire identity was wrapped around being your mother and that was all right with me. The years continue to fly by. We are in a different place now. With miles and deep canyons between us – canyons created, from my perspective, out of anger, fear and misinformation. There are canyons nonetheless. On this day and every day, I send you love and blessings. I forgive myself for the times when I didn’t act in your highest and best. I forgive you for the times that you did not honor me with your words and your actions. I honor myself, today and everyday, as your mother. I honor you as my children. I am proud of you. I will always love you more than that.

About Amy White

Hi there!
I’m Amy White.

"But you don't LOOK like a Medium!"

Can I tell you how many times I hear this when I tell people about the work that I do? It makes me giggle, just a little. Not at the person who says it, NOPE, at myself.

You see, I have been a reluctant Medium. I remember saying on more occasions that I can count "No way! Not me! I don't want to talk to dead people!"

There I was in my business suits everyday, going into the Corporate office, leading teams of people. I was working so hard to LOOK like an executive. There was no way I could ever imagine coming out to people that I had this totally WooWoo side of me.

After I quit my Corporate gig, realizing that dressing like an executive (and acting like one for that matter) didn't make the experience enjoyable or fulfilling, I still stayed pretty quiet about the Intuitive and Mediumship work that I did.

I had so much self doubt and I worried way too much about what others might think of me. I wondered how people would be able to accept the shift from such a left brained persona to one that was listing waaaaay to the other extreme.

I censored what I wrote, what I shared and how I worded things so that I didn't give too much of this side of me away.
You know WHY? Because I didn't think I looked like a Medium either!

BUT this is also what my clients love about me and honestly, it is what I love about me too! I don't have to LOOK like anyone but me.

The gifts that are part of the work that I do can show up in different ways and with many different looks. And so can I!
